1 Wood and Laminate Flooring Project Planner 1. Measure rooms & calculate the total square footage * TIP: Check each carton or ask a Pergo representative to determine the square footage of flooring included per carton. It can vary by style. HOW MUCH FLOORING DO I NEED? Multiply the length by the width of your room(s) to determine the estimated square footage (). dd a 10% waste factor to your total square footage to account for cutting, installation errors and variation in floor design. Divide the total required square footage () by the number of covered per carton of the floor you are installing.* length (ft) width (ft) (ft) % waste factor 1 total required (round up) total required flooring: per carton* total number of cartons (round up) 1 For Pergo Hardwood: We recommend adding 15% waste per NWF regulation. Pergo provides this project planner as a guide to the needs of your project and cannot guarantee these figures will satisfy the needs of your installation.

2 2. Purchase Underlayment (if needed) DO I NEED UNDERLYMENT? HOW MUCH? Divide your project s total square footage () by the number of in each roll/package of underlayment to find the total number of rolls/packages required. TIP: If the Pergo floor you selected does not include an attached underlayment, you ll need to purchase one. total square feet required 100 underlayment: average per roll/package total number of rolls/ packages (round up) When installing over concrete, you ll need a vapor barrier. We recommend using Pergo Gold Underlayment that features a built-in vapor barrier. 3. Finish Moldings TIP: We recommend adding an etra piece for cutting errors. HOW MNY FINISH MOLDING PIECES DO I NEED? Determine the perimeter of your room (C). dd the length and width measurements together and multiply by two. dd the total widths of all doorways in the room (). Subtract the total widths measured from the perimeter of the room (C) to determine the total length of wall base or quarter round. WLL SE QURTER ROUND STIR NOSE ( WLL SE & QURTER ROUND + 2 length (ft) width (ft) ) C perimeter of the room (ft) C perimeter of the room (ft) total of doorways widths (ft) total length of wall base OR quarter round needed (ft)

3 STIR NOSE MOLDING Determine the length of stair nose molding needed for the stairs in your home. Measure the width of each stair and multiply by the number of stairs to determine the total length of stair nose needed (). width of each stair (ft) number of stairs total length of stair nose needed (ft) Divide the total length () by the length per piece of molding. total length of stair nose needed (ft) molding length per piece 2 # of pieces of stair nose needed 2 Varies by molding type. 4. Transition Molding TIP: We recommend adding an etra piece for cutting errors. TWO TRNSITION MOLDING OPTIONS 4-IN-1 MOLDINGS: dd the doorway widths together and divide by 6.56 feet, then round up. This will tell you how many 4-in-1 molding kits you will need. One kit measures 6.56 feet ft total doorway widths length of 4-in-1 kit total number of 4-in-1 kits needed INDIVIDUL TRNSITION STICKS: dd the doorway widths together and divide by length of transition. This will give you the number of individual transition molding sticks you will need ft total doorway widths length of individual transition sticks total number of transition sticks needed

4 Make sure you have the tools you need: Safety glasses Coordinating moldings Pergo Floor Restore Kit Gloves Dust mask Felt furniture pads Wood glue Circular saw Moisture meter Pencil Hammer Level Tape measure Utility knife Knee pads Tapping block & 5mm spacers Underlayment (if not pre-attached) Vapor barrier (for installation over concrete floor) Use the net page to generate the estimated total cost of your new floor.
